Kyle goes looking for Allison; Megan gets shocking news; and Anderson turns a bad situation into a worse one.
Damn, that was hard to watch. I mean, it wasn't The Red Wedding or anything, but damn, that was cruel.
Man if they were going to do 'it', it should been more blatant and disturbing - like an ice pick to the eye or something.
Sucks the finale is already up.
Also, I don't like that red headed bastard.
But what's not to like?!?!
Just to be clear I'm talking about the rev's - girl friend's - son.
That was fucked up.
Fuck. I thought Kyle's life was fucked. How the fuck is Megan going to recover.
but now she killed him and is terrorizing her daughter/niece. I mean, honestly, holy fuck. Couple that with the fact she's a rape victim dealing with her rapist trying to fuck with her family and an unexpected pregnancy... If she's not dead by the end of next episode I have no idea how she is going to recover.
M.C. Gainey (Lost), Madelyn Deutch (Texas Rising) and Hoon Lee (Banshee) have joined the Season 2 cast of Cinemax exorcism drama Outcast.
Gainey will play Bob, a hermit who operates the junkyard on the edge of Rome. His brooding and eccentric demeanor conceals ties to Rome’s dark past.
Deutch is Dakota, a free spirit who embraces an unconventional form of Christianity. Her perspective clashes with Reverend Anderson’s — and she ultimately reveals a knowledge of what it is that has befallen Rome.
Lee will portray Dr. Kenneth Park, Chief of staff and an accomplished surgeon at Rome’s hospital, Dr. Park has his own cryptic agenda concerning Kyle.
This Little Light
In the Season 1 finale, Kyle and Anderson search Rome for a surprise perpetrator, while Sidney clarifies his intentions.
Beyond that, it all felt a little inconsequential. We really didn't learn much, we didn't get a showdown of any substance with Sidney (like, sheriff's neighbor and possessed wife were more present at the climax), Megan was in - kill her husband - out, and the daughter reveal, while interesting, isn't an incredible thing in and of itself. The gas station at the end felt like a forced way to throw in a cliffhanger. It put some great pieces in play (the daughter, how Megan moves forward, Rev post-teen bake, etc.), but didn't really pay off much as a season finale.
Wow I have been out of the loop! I'm still only at Episode 2 and see the season has already ended with 10 episodes? For some reason I though it would be 22 eps. And there'll be a Season 2 as well?
Is it still worth watching (does the quality stay top?) or should I just forget about it? I'll finish Stranger Things tonight, and continue my watch of Outcast tomorrow.
Oh, and the kid got torched so that's great news.
I think he was still scared that "exorcising" her would leave her braindead.Really Kyle? You're gonna try to have a fucking conversation with her? You had one job.
I think I agree with everyone else that the finale was underwhelming.
Am I a bad person that I actually smiled when the kid was torched?
I'm assuming (finale spoilers)That's what I got out of it at least.the possessed people at the gas station were there to keep Kyle and his daughter from leaving Rome?
Yeah, relegated to what we watch if we don't feel like paying close attention.Gave this show a chance and don't think i'm coming back for season 2. It just didn't hook me.
But how would they all know they were gonna stop there? I just assumed it meant that they were everywhere.
The second season starts here (UK) tonight, but I can't seem to find a US airdate. Seems weird they'd air the show here first.
I didn't even realise it got a second season.

I didn't even know they released a trailer for season 2.
What the fuck? How strange...
Weird as fuck. It's 10 episodes from what I've read, maybe it'll hit the streaming sites in the US?
What's the protocol for this? I know the rules are we can talk about the show as soon as it airs, but I doubt there'll be many UK viewers posting in this thread. Spoilers until we know what's happening wit the US airdate?
